Chocolate Moist Cake

Chocolate moist cake was one of the most frequent buying product from the "King of the Belgians Restaurant". I suppose its enchantment for those chocoholics is heaven!
I would normally leave the cake plain without any decoration but this time of year I must add something in order to look like a celebration cake for my friends birthday. I don't have any piping skills so I gave it a floral arrangements to produce a better look. However, the flowers is unedible, it's just for decoration.
The texture was very moist with rich chocolate flavor. Perhaps the instant coffee had enriched the cake flavor and it wasn't too sweet for the birthday girls.

Hi Anonymous,The proportion of the ingredients are for two of 8 inches round tins. You could bake the whole batter in a rectangular pan then cut it into 2 portions. But please be careful when you cut it and whole it with two hands when you start to assembly the cake because the chocolate moist cake is quite fragile and moist. Do it carefully and gently. You could double the ingredients for this recipe but your tins size should be bigger or the cake will rise very high. It's very up to you. For your last question about the chocolate turn out very dry. May I know which recipe are you using? It might be the temperature of your oven is too high. Wish you all the best! Happy baking!

Hi chanced upon your oh-so-delicious-looking cake. You alternated flour and water? Is water better than say, milk? From the responses of those who did it, the cake turned out great. Guess I must try with water added to it.
